Sticky in this same area "Thinking of buying a Boxster? - MUST READ"
It's good to start cold. That lets you hear the start up noises (Chain rattle) and if the Secondary Air Pump operates correctly (Vacuum cleaner sound for about 90 seconds).
Driving - get on hwy to feel for excessive vibration and steering straight and try hard braking - should brake in a straight line
And of course there is always a PPI
60k miles is big service interval so at 50k how much has been done
If roof is original (Plastic window (2003 had glass)), there will be wearing at the folds lines. Mine is well worn but doesn't leak. A good roof shouldn't leak
As far as common issues, well there can be many and there can be none (Sounds like our President there) so a PPI really is your best bet identifying
Good luck
